Enlistee Rank Men: Reservist Rank Promotion? Tell Officer?

insouciant SG

You always hear all this talk about promotion opportunities, but have never met or even heard of a private, lance-corporal or corporal get promoted. Seems you have to be a spec before anything happens.

tarutaru SG

there are cases of people promoted during reservist depending on unit

Gordonator SG

is it that important whether a LCP gets promoted to CPL? he’s still a man and as a reservist, be it LCP or CPL, he won’t be getting much allowance anyway.

hisoka SG

yeah lor why you care

but hor why they must cap the rank one like that very bad leh no space for advancement Laughing

dewsd SG

Of course it's possible.

tarutaru SG

In fact i wanted to be promoted during active time, but cannot get it due to some problem but reservist don't want to get it but got it lucky consider as a high key or else waste of time.

tErI-yAkI SG

LCP is good enuff la. Why bother to promote and serve extra months?

And I remember the hijack plane incident. I think there's a Major who got promoted to COL instantly too right?

quivalen SG

why would you want to be promoted during reservist? your allowance is going to be the same anyway, isn’t it? well, unless you’re still studying that is.

seachfun SG

Sure it can be done. Pte can be promoted to LCP than CPL within 3 in camp.

LazerLordz SG

There are LCPs and CPLs converted to CPT(Dr) after their reservist MO course..

heard it applies to lawyers too..as some would serve their reservist as JAGs in the Legal Affairs Department..

insouciant SG

Just curious lah. You hear all this talk about promotion, but hardly ever see except with some of the specialists and officers.

Aiyah, at the end of the day, it will motivate some of the men. Pple always like to get recognized for their efforts. However I think sometimes the sgts, pc or oc just too lazy to do the extra paper work.

I-like-flings(m) SG
